Edmund Dupree, Vice President of the Haitian Chamber of Commerce who was at the ACP/EEC meeting in Barbados spoke with confidence of his country's chances and was highly optimistic on the outcome for the Dominican Republic. In response to Barbados’ Prime Minister Sandiford inquiry on the human rights situation, Dupree was quick to point out the continued improvements in that area. Andrew Pierce, Member of the European Parliament and Member of the Development Committee also felt that Haiti stood a good chance at acceptance whereas the Dominican Republic was likely to generate greater discussions given its history and economic ties. Fernando Gonzalez, Chairman of the British Chamber of Commerce in Santo Domingo recognized the need for greater integration within the region through trade and cultural linkages. On the promotion of trade in the Caribbean, Tim Barrington, Director of Greenfield Exports spoke on the sale of eighty Friesian cows at a cost of eleven hundred pounds each, to the St. Lucia Livestock Development Company. Other livestock ventures mentioned by Greenfield in the region included the sale of wool-less and hairless sheep to British Virgin Islands and pending projects in Trinidad and Barbados.1.
